My Short Short for the Day

“Who will win?  It’s a close race at this point.  The lead has changed so many times but there is a small group that is starting to pull away from the pack.  Who can sustain this pace?  Who can stay focused to the finish?  Come back after these messages for more coverage of the 10th annual Pug Run!”

“Welcome back folks.  Some exciting developments.  Our leader, Mr. Floop Floop has decided to take a nap halfway around the track.  He has been passed by almost all the other racers at this point.  It looks like he’s not waking up any time soon.  Ok, back to the leaders.  Oh, no!  Scruwbull and Fang have moved to the edge of the track for a ‘restroom’ break.  So now the lead pack is down to 5; Chub Bob, Pork Chop, Squiggles, Mopey, and Snorty McSnortleson.  We’ll be right back for more exciting coverage of the 10th annual Pug Run!”

“Thanks for rejoining us folks.  There have been some new developments.  Our current leader is Chub Bob with Pork Chop right behind him and Mopey in third.  Unfortunately, a few moments ago, Squiggles started chasing his tail, got dizzy and ran back towards the start line.  He is still running all the way into the crowd.  And we see Snorty McSnortleson has stopped to scratch his ear.  Appears to have quite an itch at that.  Our lead pack might be getting smaller but it’s still pulling further ahead of the rest of the pack.  Several of the other racers have stopped for some back scratches and belly rubs from the fans.  Stay tuned for more race updates after these messages from our sponsors.”

“Ok, we’re back.  The lead pack is entering the final stretch, about 50 yards left to go.  They are slowing down a bit, but not much chance of the others catching up since most of the pugs have lost interest and are sitting down on the track, taking a nap, or wandering off into the crowd.  Oh, look!  We have a fight between Pork Chop and Mopey.  It appears that Mopey nipped at Pork Chop for some reason and now the two are fighting only 20 yards from the finish.  Not to worry, though, the owners have made their way to the track and are separating the pugs.  And look folks!  We appear to have a winner.  Chub Bob has successfully completed the entire lap and crossed the finish line.  What an exciting day for Pugs everywhere!  Congratulations Chub Bob!  Looks like fancy kibble is on the menu for you tonight, little guy!  Well, that’s it for our coverage of the 10th annual Pug Run.  We hope you enjoyed the show and have a pleasant evening!”
